Our Finnish speakers, fully qualified to teach their native tongue, can train you and, if need be, the rest of your group at a time that is suitable to you, at your home or place of work. Sessions can take place on the day of your choosing - even weekends - and at the time you want: whether it be morning, afternoon or evening. If circumstances arise where your home or office is not convenient, the classes can be held at your trainer's office. Resources for the lesson are provided for you.
These Finnish lessons fit a broader spectrum, and can be useful for those who need different things from the language. Most beginner students will have a handle of survival Finnish by the end of their lesson, which will provide them with enough Finnish to communicate at least at a basic level during short trips to the country, but those who require more would benefit greatly from these sessions. Typical students have been those eager to travel all over the world, those buying overseas property, those with foreign spouses, aficionados of Finnish culture and those who just wish to pass a particular Finnish exam.
Those who would benefit the most from these Finnish tutorials are those who feel they need to learn Finnish to help them out in their business lives. For starters, learning salutations and business etiquette is integral; once these have been practiced then reading and writing lessons can start. Typical studiers have been those involved in international import/export, negotiations and acquisitions, those in multinational companies requiring another language, and those working in any way with international governments and relevant administration. Just our simplest lesson for beginners will have students finishing the lessons with basic telephone and e-mail Finnish, as well as survival Finnish should a visit to the country be necessary.
Those wishing to learn Finnish in groups of 2 or more together (Two-to-One Finnish Lessons or Small Group In-Company Finnish Lessons) can sign up for our group classes. All students must be at nearly the same level of Finnish proficiency, must have the same needs from the language, and must be able to study at the same time and place as the others. Bookings must be made for all students simultaneously. Listen & Learn do not propose group sizes or more than 6-8 people, but In-Company Taster Finnish Lessons can occur with up to 12 people.

Lincoln
There are over 200,000 people living in Lincoln, Nebraska many of whom are teaching or studying at the town's world famous state university. How serious is Lincoln, Nebraska about its football? When the University of Nebraska Cornhuskers play on Saturday, the city becomes one of the most populous in the Midwest. But there's a lot more to Lincoln that just football. The university there is without peer among its contemporaries, which makes for a surprisingly large international community smack dab in the middle of the American heartland. With so many students coming from around the world to study abroad in Lincoln, there is a surprisingly high value to learning a foreign language there. Students arrive in Lincoln from the Pacific Rim, Europe and Africa bringing their language and unique culture with them. In order to communicate more effectively with all these interesting individuals, one should consider learning a foreign language. Who knows, the academic tone of the city may inspire a visit to another country around the world.
